Well Rested

Wrinkle wrinkle little star… how I want to keep you afar. Oh wait. Those AREN’T the lyrics? Could have fooled me. I’ve been known to say crazier things when I’m running on little sleep. And let’s just hope I get more Zzz’s – so that lullaby stays a lullaby and not a nightmare.

Without further adieu…

And with a disclaimer, that this will likely be the only time I advice you to fake anything (with the exception of lashes, every now and again).

Hi there, I’ve been following your blog for quite some time now and I really love it. I also have a one and half year old son and I’m trying for the second one now and you have trully been an inspiration for me. Sometimes I wonder if I’ll be able to deal with 2 kids, my full time work, my blog and a personal business of mine… but then I come here and I honestly feel motivated by you.

This post you made has captivated my attention because I have exactly the same kind of wrinckles that you do around my mouth and because being so thin doesn’t really help, sometimes I feel really bad about them. And then I see your picture and I think “WOW… she has those wrinckles and yet she is absolutely beatifull even more than most 20 year old young ladies”… so, THANK YOU for letting me know that a wrinckle from smiling isn’t a bad thing and that they can still be preety on a beautiful face such as yours.

Keep your amazing post, for they really inspire people around the world (I’m Portuguese)

I love this look! I always enjoy your tutorials and almost, actually all the products I use, have been recommended by you and we’re the same shade in the bare minerals! Thanks so much lovely lady and Beckham is a cutie

Hello from Canada! I am a new fan. I found you by accident and just love everything you do. Great tutorial today, it couldn’t have come at a better time. I woke up this morning looking like I hadn’t slept at all. You guys are just so darn cute!!!

It’s BEGGING to be cut (or a least trimmed). Can’t remember the last time that happened. Yes, it’s styled with long layers (long layers in the back and more varied lengths around the frame of my face).

Wonderful tutorial, thank you for sharing. This is going to come in handy. I ordered a bunch of the recommended product from your 5 minute makeup and LOVE the Dr. Jart and the eye pencil. I recommend it to everyone now. Thanks for all your advice!!

Loved this! I have a silly question though…I started using the makeup forever eyeshadow crayon after your 5 minute makeup tutorial and love it but not sure if I can sharpen it with a regular eyeliner sharpener…
Thanks!

I love this, even though I have just now collected all of the 5 minute make-up supplies. I shall add in some of these, especially the concealer tips. I love the baby shot, he is gorgeous!
What shade would you describe the urban decay lucky? It looks orange! Does it act like a brightener?

Oh my gosh!!! I want to squeeze your lil cutie pie! You made me smile! Babies are sooooo precious! Love the tutorial too! I have 2 questions! First where did you get your perfect white tee and second….would you ever consider doing a post on closet organization, as in your closet full of clothes! Do you color coordinate your clothing? Do you purge every year? My closet is always getting out of hand, and half the time I don’t even know what I have! What’s your tips and secrets! Thanks pretty girl! Xo amber

T is a boyfriend T from Target (last year… hoping they come out with them again this year). Closet organization is hilarious over here. Our closets are small so I’m taking over the whole house! But yes, I purge at the end of each season.

This was really helpful.. & cheerio on the “lil Bum” put a smile on my face!!
sheesh Do u ever have bad skin or hair days?!! Ive never seen u with messy hair or breakouts can u please spill your updated skin care?
Thanks for all the helpful tid bits:)

Oh Lilly, how you’ve made my day! Unfortunately yes, I have bad beauty days… just like everyone else on the planet. I’ve been playing around with my skin regimen. Right now I’m using up AnnMarie Gianni (past sponsor) line. Really like it!

I have a question, little miss I recently tried a BB cream and it just would NOT rub in. I had little patches of make up on my skin about 2 hours after I put it on. Is BB skin something that’s not ideal for oily skin and large pores? Thanks for any light you can shed!

HI! I just discovered your blog and LOVE love love it! I watched your video yesterday and rushed to Sephora to pick up some of these fab products – so fun. Thank you for sharing! I was wondering if you wouldn’t mind sharing your night time routine. Mainly, I’m in search of a good night cream… any ideas? Thanks!!

Hi! I’m a college student and pull all nighters all the time! Thanks for this great look! I have really dark circles and was wondering if you have any other tips for dark circles and I have chapped lips so wondering if you have a Chapstick you like? Thanks for your help!

Hi! I love your tutorials! thanks for all the amazing info!! But i had a question.. do you have any drug store/cheaper versions of the make up forever shadow pen and uplight? I wish i could spend $29 on that.. but its unrealistic for my tiny make up budget.. any suggestions? Thank yoU!! hope u had a great bday!!

missy-
love the nail polish you recommended on a previous post, Orly’s pure porcelain, but I can’t get it to last more than a day! Do you use a top coat or do you have a secret?! I love the color, but wish it lasted longer! Love your blog! You’re hilarious, I’m always laughing along with your tutorials. Thanks for sharing all your tips w/ us!

Loved this post! Went out and bought the BB cream, I had heard of it but haven’t tried it until now! IT’S so great! Should have tried it sooner. Thanks for being real and true in your video, being a SAHM is tough, thanks for your encouragement, and sharing your little bundle of joy!

I <3 your tutorial. Really inspires me as I always thought it'd take ages to look the way you do, but this was 10 mins, and the fab in 5 was 5 mins! Just wondering, how long does your makeup last?whole day? Maybe you can have a tutorial on touch ups because mine lasts only half a day

I just tried to order lucky but urban decay is no longer making it. I know I can order it from urban decays website while they still have them, but I was hoping to just place a big sephora order with all your new recommendations. Any thoughts on what new urban decay eyeliner looks like lucky? Thanks!

I love your blog and watching all of your tutorials. This is a random question, but I am a blonde as well (not natural), but I get it partially foiled at least every 5 weeks because it is so light. My question is: Do you get your hair foiled or do you do it yourself? I would love any tips from a blonde to a blonde If I could do it myself, I would, but am too scared I’ll ruin it! Thank you!

I would really like to purchase all the products you used, but unfortunately the lucky pencil is unavailable on Sephora and their own web site. ): its hard to find something similar, because I have never used the product and not sure what would be similar, the 30e is also out of stock not sure if you have and products dups you know of?
